Secrets of the Past

### **Chapter 6: Secrets of the Past**

Lukman and Rahmat decided to uncover the history of the booklet. Everything that had happened so far convinced them that this was no ordinary book but a source of ancient and incredible power.

-

Rahmat gathered some documents from the oldest library in the city. All of these documents were related to mysterious powers and ancient civilizations.

"Lukman, look at this. This document says that in ancient India, some sages could control powers beyond science." Rahmat said excitedly.

"So, is this booklet also connected to those powers?" Lukman asked.

"It seems likely. But it also says that controlling these powers wasn't easy. It required not only mental balance but also purity of the soul." Rahmat explained.

Lukman opened the next page of the booklet. This time, it read:

> **"Your power depends solely on your willpower. If you cannot control your fear and anger, this power will work against you."**

Lukman tried to calm himself. He took a deep breath and focused his thoughts. His fingers began to glow faintly with a blue light.

"I'm starting to understand that this power is not just external but also a part of my inner state." Lukman said.

-

Rahmat pulled out another document. It mentioned an ancient war where similar powers were used. But at the end of that war, these powers were sealed away to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.

"If this power is connected to that war, then it means it was hidden for a reason. And if it's now with me, then someone must be trying to awaken it again." Lukman speculated.

"Maybe that dark creature is also connected to that war. And it wants to reclaim this power." Rahmat thought aloud.

-

That night, while Lukman and Rahmat were discussing the mysteries of the power in the lab, the lights suddenly went out. In the darkness, only the faint blue glow from Lukman's fingers was visible.

"Rahmat, it looks like we're in danger again." Lukman said cautiously.

Just then, with a terrifying roar, the same dark creature appeared once more. But this time, it wasn't alone; two more shadows accompanied it.

"You have challenged us, Lukman. Now face the consequences." The creature growled.

Lukman concentrated his power and extended his hands. A blue shield emerged from his glowing fingers, blocking the creatures' attack.

"Do whatever you want. I understand my power now." Lukman said fearlessly.

All three creatures charged at him simultaneously. Lukman increased his energy and created a massive sphere of blue light. He hurled it toward the creatures.

Screams echoed through the air as the creatures slowly dissolved into black smoke and vanished.

"What was that, Lukman? You've made your power even stronger!" Rahmat said, amazed.

"Yes, but I still need to understand who these creatures are and why this booklet came to me." Lukman said, deep in thought.

"If these beings are connected to that ancient war, then we need to dive even deeper into that war's history." Rahmat suggested.

-

Lukman and Rahmat decided to broaden their research. They planned to study more ancient texts and manuscripts.

But the real question remained — would they succeed in understanding this power, or would it lead them toward an even greater danger?
